Does anyone have one of these or know someone who does? I'm just looking to get some feedback. I know someone who just started dealing with them. I drove the 650 Commando C2. I'm more interested in the 800 Renagade R2. He just got a few of them in.
How do they compare to the Rhino, Ranger and Mule (I think there a few others to)?

Pretty nice! Kind of reminds me of a hummer front end.
I have a Ranger, the reason for me to get the ranger over the Mule was the smoother ride, pulling power, seat 3 people, EFI, and 44 MPH. However, I almost went with the mule over the ranger because the ranger is loud. I sometimes wish I got a golf cart instead. But I'm happy with what I got.
I've never seen a Joyner, but from the looks of it, it should be a good strong UTV.

I'm not sure how well them Bad Boy Buggies will plow snow. I'll have to visit their web site again.
The 650 I drove was real quite, but then it was new. I kind of like the idea of 4 on the floor. I need to make it down and take a test drive.

I ran into a guy that has a Joyner Sand Runner and he said it is the best buggy he's ever had. He said it has been very reliable and he has had no problems with it. He seemed to be very pleased. He didn't know much about the UTV's though. Looking at the Commando spec sheet it gives up alot to the Ranger but it is also $2000.00 less than the 500 and $3000.00 less than the 700. If the price is not an issue then I would probably spend the extra cash on the Ranger. A good question you need to ask your buddy is how is the parts availability and warranty.
I almost bought a Ranger myself but it is overkill for what I need right now so I bought a close-out 4X4 350 Rancher added a drop-rack and extended warranty for about $4500.00. If I need to move something heavy I have a small trailer I use. All the same utility just not as convenient and I can't carry passengers as easily. A buddy of mine bought a Ranger 700 for Christmas and I am starting to itch for a Ranger again.

They have some of the best prices around. If I would have known about them sooner I would have bought mine there. Also the Honda Big Red comes out this Summer but it will be pricey.

jlee, I hate to tell you but you should have gotten the Ranger!  
I am a proud owner of a Ranger 700 XP. It has the EFI and on a cold morning I turn the key fire it up and I'm gone. A buddy of mine has a Mule and he has to let it idle and warm up before he can roll.

I seem to be visiting the Ranger site alot these days. It's fun to deck one out on the build my own feature. http://www.polarisindustries.com/en-US/Ranger/Pages/Home.aspx
I have a '47 Willys that I use for the "big" jobs so I decided to go with the ATV instead of the Ranger. There are definitely times I have regretted it but I did save alot of cash  .
Another good forum topic area might be a place to post pics and details for ATV's, Jeeps and other vehicles used for hunting. I'd love to see how some of these might be decked out. Beside their is an area for boats.

Even though I have a Ranger, I still go and build one on their site too!
We had a thread on the other site with ATV's and trucks...If its not raining today when I get home I might just take some pictures of mine and post it. I do have one of the windshield I'll post.
